"Oil On Canvas, Jules Wielhorski "lipstick""
Oil on canvas signed Jules Wielhorski (1875–1961) - The Lipstick. A charming, intimate scene depicting a young woman at her toilette, delicately applying her makeup. This work perfectly illustrates the art of Jules Wielhorski, a French painter renowned for his gentle and sensitive portraits of women. The subtle modeling of the flesh tones, the supple brushstrokes, and the nuanced palette lend the scene a hushed atmosphere, typical of early 20th-century intimate painting. The model's expressive gaze and natural gestures reveal a great mastery of portraiture and a particular attention to the psychology of the subject. The theme of the woman at her toilette, very popular at this time, is treated here with elegance and restraint. The work is presented in its antique gilt frame, which fully contributes to its charm and authenticity. A very fine example of the work of Jules Wielhorski, ideal for a collection of French figurative painting or for refined decoration. Dimensions without frame: 41 x 33 cm. Dimensions with frame: 54 x 46 cm.
